FileInsertNewDialog

The FileInsertNewDialog event notifies the client whenever the user executes the Create Component command within an assembly. The event fires immediately after the command is executed, but before Inventor displays the standard Create In-Place Component dialog.

EventNames:

• FileInsertNewDialog_Pre

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
String	templateDirectory	The default template directory as defined in the File tab of the Application Options dialog
ResultParameters	result	Object used to supply the result of the operation. See below.
Document	document	The document object the new component will be created within

Result properties:

Type	Name	Description
String	FileName	The file name to use.
String	DirectoryPath	The directory where the file that should be inserted is in.
String	FullFileName	The full file name of the file, can be used to check that the fileName set is correct.
String	TemplateFileName	The filename of the file to use as the template when creating the new component.
String	TemplateDirectoryPath	The directory of the file to use as the template when creating the new component.
String	TemplateFullFileName	The full file name of the template file, can be used to check that the fileName set is correct

Remarks:

To change the default behavior of Inventor you need to set both the FileName and DirectoryPath to the result variable, if none are set, the behavior will stay the same.
If the TemplateFileName is not set the default template will be used. To set the Template file name you will need to set both the TemplateFileName and TemplateDirectoryPath properties.

This event can be aborted by throwing an exception inside the action.
Throwing an OperationCanceledException aborts the operation without any message.
Throwing any other exception aborts the operation and displays the thrown exception in an Error Message Box.

Examples:

FileInsertNewDialog_Pre:

Register-InventorEvent -EventName FileInsertNewDialog_Pre -Action 'PreFileInsertNewDialog'

function PreFileInsertNewDialog($templateDirectory, $result, $document) {
	#Write event code here
	$result.FileName = "12345.ipt"
	$result.DirectoryPath = "C:\Vault"
	$result.FullFileName #Returns the FullFileName e.g "C:\Vault\12345.ipt", cannot be set.
	$result.TemplateFileName = "template.ipt"
	$result.TemplateDirectoryPath = "C:\Templates"
	$result.TemplateFullFileName #Returns the TemplateFullFileName e.g "C:\Templates\template.ipt", cannot be set.
